Regardless of what the creators intended, that movie was complete and total camp black comedy awesomeness. Man, what a great summer time movie.

It was so stupid and ridiculous that I too wondered if it was supposed to be a satire, and I've heard that argument made several times; I don't have it in me to agree, but I can't dismiss it out of hand, either.Stephenhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12353384030134127816noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8474941883581221669.post-36821666188674473332011-02-03T12:40:56.513-08:002011-02-03T12:40:56.513-08:00Piranha was so ridiculously over the top that I di...Piranha was so ridiculously over the top that I didn't even know what to make of it.
